[QUOTE="Jo_the_boat, post: 2333124, member: 436209"] It's an awful disease and yes, people have died. It can be argued that the 58k figure is very misleading. 'Died with covid within 28 days of a positive test' as a benchmark statistic is full of holes. IMO we really need to question if our response now and throughout the year has been way overblown. As far as I understand it the virus sars-cov-2 which causes the illness is one of many similar. Previous ones arrival, development and disappearance have followed a pattern and this one is too. Many scientists believe that lockdowns, masks etc. have made almost no difference. Overall deaths on October are following a 5 year average. Stats can be spun then spun again. [/QUOTE]
